Last day to let your friends know.  See you tomorrow at 1pm.  Let's inject some cash downtown!!

Fantastic results!

Had 42 people show up for the cash mob on Saturday.  Our victim(besides Burrito Gallery which gained about 26 customers from the mob) was Chamblins Uptown... all 12,000 square feet and 800,000 books of it. 

Chamblins saw about a 38% sales increase for the day just on the one hour alone we invaded the store.

All three local tv news outlets were on hand and reported on the event:
